Base does not use GPLv3 software so this is stuck at an older version. Please either use lldb, or pkg_add gdb and use the egdb binary from packages (now at 16.3 in snapshots - the 7.7 release was older but still usable)). Perhaps we should stop building and installing gdb on archs using the LLVM toolchain; it was useful once upon a time, but not so much now. -- Please keep replies on the mailing list.
